Rep. Chip Roy's FIERY message to federal bureaucracy amid shutdown debate

Congress is just days away from another government shutdown and Republicans in the House have yet to come to an agreement among themselves, never mind with the Democrats. Glenn speaks with Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), who has had enough of the federal bureaucracy that asks for more and more money so it can continue its "war" against the American people. Rep. Roy tells Glenn what he's advising his federal Republicans to do in order to get the government back on track — so it can protect Americans at the border instead of investigating them at home. But will the new Speaker of the House, Rep. Mike Johnson, take a stand or cave to RINOs and Democrats?

GLENN: As the world burns down, what is our speaker of the House doing?

I don't know. Remember, we have the fight to aid Israel. And -- and not Hamas. We have the fight to secure the border.

We have the fight to discover the truth of what our government has really become.

By the way, I misspoke earlier today.

I said that we had all of the videotape from January 6th. It was my understanding, that we were receiving it.

Apparently, that is the word. But the Speaker of the House has not done anything yet.

You know, I'm sure he's very busy, doing stuff that is important. I hope that he is also working on the budget. And we're passing a budget. Otherwise, you know, two weeks, we come up to that. Oh, my gosh.

They're going to shut down the government.

STU: It's good to have optimism for him.

And everything that he will do. However, I know we supposedly will have access to all these tapes, when McCarthy is in. So I can't imagine we won't get them now.

GLENN: Let me get to Chip Roy, who is our congressman from the great state of Texas. Hello, Chip.

CHIP: Hi, Glenn, how are you?

GLENN: Good. How is our new Speaker of the House so far?
CHIP: Mike has been doing a good job. We have two weeks of data.

The first step, first big thing he did, was isolating Israel.

Making sure we pass a standalone, and then using the expansion of the Internal Revenue Service, to take 14 and a half billion dollars out of that pot of money, of 70-something billion sitting there, and use that to pay for Israel.

And, of course, our democratic colleagues are choosing the IRS over Israel.

GLENN: Right.

CHIP: Fortunately, 12 of them didn't. But we have to keep going down that road. That was the right approach by speaker Johnson. You have to encourage that.

And now as we're dealing with the spending issues. The so-called CR debate.

Continuing resolution we will have been to hold the line.

And that's the message we're sending to Mike this week.

That we love them. Love what he did on the IRS and Israel. Now on the spending bills, we need to fight.

GLENN: Yeah. We are -- we are in deep trouble with the spending, as you know.

And the securing of our border.

I mean, nothing is happening there.

Biden said, he was willing to, you know, secure our border.

It shows, he has absolutely no care in the world, for the damage that is being done to our -- on our republic.

CHIP: Well, Glenn, you're 100 percent correct.

And we've talked about this on your show. What's happening is totally indefensible.

And you know that. And I know that. Every American knows that. The number of people who have come in, the amount of fentanyl, the amount of deaths, the amount of danger the Texans are put in.

The impact on our economy.

The $10 billion we have had to spend in Texas, to do the job of the federal government.

So we have to do something about the border.

Now, the current thinking in this town, is that we need to leverage Ukraine in order to force border security.

And the problem is, I'm sure you will agree, that accepts the premise of Ukraine in the first place.

GLENN: Yes.

CHIP: So what we're trying to fight through right now, is what debate we need to have, about whether any more money to Ukraine is acceptable or defensible.

Right?

And so that's kind of a condition, we have to establish. And so we're trying to force that conversation. Transparency. Where the money will go.

How it's used.

Is it in our national security interests?

And if so, is it enough of that, to then warrant using it, as a kind of, you know, leverage point to force border security.

So here's a hypothetical. We tell the Democrats, look, your whole lives depend apparently on funding in other countries.

Proxy war.

So okay. You want to do that.

So let's say, $36 billion over 12 months.

This is a hypothetical, Glenn. I'm not advocating that.

If you do that, and we say 3 billion a month, provided however, there are no releases of any individuals in the United States, period.

And then we will dole out that $3 billion as a way to leverage, and force Biden, who has no interest in following the law.

So we pass HR2. Force him to sign it.

And then we dole out some dollars.

And say, look, we will hold you accountable to this.

And that's a hypothetical that we're discussing. And we might do that. But for me, the question before us right now, we have this funding of government question, coming up.

And I just want to ask you, and the people listening to your show. Do you think that I, as an elected member of Congress. Should agree to continue funding at the Nancy Pelosi spending levels of last December?

GLENN: No.

CHIP: And keep funding DHS, and keep funding Mayorkas, and keep funding the United Nations, and keep funding Anera, and keep funding the DOJ. Weaponize against the American people.

GLENN: No. No. No.

CHIP: In order to give time for appropriations bills to get negotiated. My answer to that is no.

You have to give me cuts.

You have to give me something, in order to buy more time to pass the appropriations bills. I'm glad we passed seven appropriations bills.

It's better than previous Congresses. But so what. Until they can sign into law changing policies and cutting spending, then --

GLENN: It means nothing.

CHIP: It doesn't do the American people any good.

So for me, I'm not going to vote for any sort of clean CR. And that's what's being floated. And some people in this town are trying to pressure Mike to agree to a clean CR, and I just flatout disagree with it and I will fight it.

GLENN: Yeah. They're -- Chip. Just the interest rate alone at what we are borrowing things at now, continues to go up. We by 2030 or 2033, we'll be able to pay for Social Security and interest.

Alone. Not the light bills.

Not any -- nothing. Just Social Security, what we've promised, and interest. No -- no war machine.

What the hell is wrong with people in Washington.

What do they think is going to happen?

CHIP: A 1 percent increase in interest rates, increases out total interest load about $180 billion.

Think about that, Glenn. And that's what we're doing.

GLENN: Well, I -- I -- I recommend, you have a hard spine here.

I don't think that there is any reason, to not go back to the spending levels of 2019, before the emergencies.

There's no reason. None. None.

Can you give me one?

CHIP: No. Glenn, I'm with you. And so I will give this little bit of grace, because it's important. Mike has been on the job. He's been here two weeks.

He's setting up his team. His first shot out of the gate was a good one. IRS funding for Israel.

I'm trying to help set the stage for the next steps.

And I'm sorry. I'm walking over to the mic. You're getting some echoing in the hallway.

But look, my pressure point here is, you have to change this town.

You give me something that I can sink my teeth into.

For example, fine. You want an extension of the current funding levels in order to buy time to get appropriations bills passed. Okay. But I want the disaster aid that we already passed by continuing resolution -- I mean, by unanimous consent.

Or whatever. When we voted for it, a few weeks ago.

We passed a disaster supplemental. That was unpaid for.

$16 billion.

I want to see Israel get that done and paid for. That's $30 billion that we will save.

And I want to see, a serious and concrete path for getting the appropriation bills passed for September.

You give me all that. Now you're in the ZIP code of something I can listen to.

But what about capping the so-called inflation reduction act subsidies that are destroying the American economy?

What about other changes that we should do to force spending down into freeing up the American people to create wealth?

What about border security?

So these are the things I'm raising.

Do not ask me to continue to fund the government, that's killing my people, that are at war with the people I represent. Because I can't do that.

GLENN: So, Chip, I have to throw another log on the fire here. I'm sorry to do this. Because I know you're so bogged down with everything else.

But there's a story that came out yesterday about the FCC. And we've talked to the commissioner of the FCC.

And it is the most far-reaching administrative state power grab in the history of technology. They're passing it next Tuesday. It's all, but done. It will take centrist Republicans to try to convince them to back off on this.

But it's three-two. For the Democrats. In the vote. Next week.

And it gives the administration, total control over everything. All expansion. All infrastructure.

All rates. Everything!

Everything under the FCC, and that happens Tuesday.

CHIP: So this is -- you are right. It's a log on the fire. I can give you about 20 logs on the fire.

Right. Right. No, right now, there are depositions going on for Weisz.

What we're seeing in terms of the Biden situation. Hunter Biden. The family corruption. We can go down the list of things that are happening right now with ATF.

And the exertion of their authority over the American people.

The prohibition of distributing weapons to people around the world, and helping people.

The extent to which -- the FCC, what you're just talking about right there, we've got -- there's a litany of things. Which goes to my point of the paying for -- of us funding a federal bureaucracy, that is at war with the people we represent, Glenn.

That's the question. Look, I said it on the mic in front of Republicans this morning.

I don't talk about private meetings very much.

So I won't say what other people said.

But I will tell you what I said.

Which was, how on earth, can we justify, spending at the current level that is last year's Nancy Pelosi levels. That 17 Republican senators joined with passed.

The rest of us opposed it. We all opposed it violently.

And now we will just vote for it again.

We will vote to perpetuate. You're going to do that for two years. We will spend and fund a DHS that is leaving our border wide open.

An IRS that is expanding, and going after citizens. A DOJ that is weaponizing and going after the American people.

The FCC that we just described. An ATF that is charging the American people. We will fund Anera. Right? Which is funding Palestinians.

Who are at war with the people of Israel. We will fund the United Nations who just voted against Israel, in favor of Hamas?

GLENN: USAID?

CHIP: In what universe would we do that?

GLENN: Not in any sane universe.

Chip, go into your meeting.

We'll say a prayer for you, that you are filled with the right words.

And you do no harm, and you can get across to the Speaker. And get him to do the things that -- that he will know he needs to do.

CHIP: Thank you, Glenn. God bless.

GLENN: Thank you. You bet. Buh-bye.

The Dark Truth Behind Queer Theory & Gender ‘Affirmation’ For Children | Liz Wheeler & Glenn Beck

In this explosive conversation, Glenn Beck and Liz Wheeler expose the disturbing roots of gender ideology and queer theory — and how these radical ideas are directly targeting children. From the shocking origins of queer theory, where pedophilia and child pornography were openly defended, to Planned Parenthood’s new role as one of the largest distributors of transgender hormone therapy, the truth is undeniable: this movement is not about freedom or equality, but about dismantling families, corrupting innocence, and profiting off of our children’s pain. What we are witnessing is nothing less than a satanic ideology dressed up as compassion — and it’s spreading like wildfire through schools, culture, and medicine. Parents, you need to hear this. The time to protect your children and fight back is NOW.

Glenn's "secret" to conquering the JFK fitness test

President Trump recently signed an executive order to reinstate the Presidential Fitness Test and the media is in a frenzy. But Glenn and Stu look back at the history of these tests, including JFK’s version of the Test that seems IMPOSSIBLE for modern Americans. But Glenn has a secret reason for why he’s confident in his pull-up abilities…

GLENN: What is the -- what is the new physical -- the president's physical fitness, you know, plan?

STU: Well, the thing that RFK Jr and Hegseth were rolling out the other day. I don't know if it was the full test or anything, but they were issuing a challenge to America, to be able to do 100 pushups and 50 pullups within five minutes.

GLENN: That's crazy.

STU: Thank you! That struck you as also crazy.

I don't think there's ever been a time in my life, that I could do that. Let alone now with shoulder problems. And much too much weight.

GLENN: All right. But that was before I needed this walker.

STU: I don't think there was a time in my 20s or my teens, that I could do that. But that -- in five minutes? Fifty pullups?
GLENN: Both of them in 5 minutes.
STU: Yeah, both of them. So it's not like 100 pushups in five minutes. It's both tasks within five minutes.

GLENN: No. No. That's not true.

STU: RFK Jr. is just doing it in jeans.

GLENN: Yeah, well, RFK, he's -- he's a weirdo. I mean, he is. Come on. When it comes to fitness, he's a weirdo.
STU: Yes.
GLENN: I mean, he's done this his whole life. He's like 800 years old. He can still do it.

STU: Yes. Depressive, I will say.

GLENN: I don't know. He's a sex machine.

STU: Oh. That's been a problem for him. Yes, that's been an issue in his life. Yes.

GLENN: Okay. All right. Go ahead.

STU: Separate from the president's physical fitness test.

GLENN: Right.

STU: But, I mean, they don't, they don't really think we're going to do that, right?
Like, I mean, how long would that take you to do?

STU: I think for me, it would take a good month. I think a month, I could probably get two pullups a day. That would get me around, a little over 50. So I could do that. Plus, the pushups. A solid month, I could get that done.

GLENN: You could do more than two a day. You could do more than two a day.

STU: You know, Glenn, I've got to say. I think -- I will throw a number out there. No science behind this, so just as a guestimate.

I would say 40 percent of the population can't do any pullups. Maybe 30 percent. Thirty percent of the population can do exactly zero pullups. Precisely zero, so an infinite amount of time would be a correct answer for a third of the population.

GLENN: I think you're -- I think you're being -- I think you're being a little too optimistic. I think it's closer to 40 or 50. I think it's closer to 40 or 50. Maybe 60 percent.

STU: Right! Pushups are one thing. I mean, I think almost anyone can do a pushup. One --

GLENN: You can do a pushup. Yes. Yes.

STU: Singular pushup. And if you can do one, you can wait long enough, to do a second one.
And at some point, the hundred gets done. That's not the case with pullups. Pullups, you can sit there and think about how much you want to do a pullup for a really long time. But that doesn't make a pullup happen. If you've got a certain amount of weight on you. You're not doing a pullup. It's not occurring.

GLENN: I have no idea, how many pullups I can do.

STU: I have an exact number of pullups, you can do.

GLENN: Do you? You think so?

STU: Yeah. Yeah. I have the exact number. I have to calculate -- AI has been running a report on me. It came up with zero.

GLENN: Right. Right. Really?
I can do. I mean, this is so pathetic. Listen to this. I bet I could do three. You know, you could do three.

STU: In a row? Proper form.

GLENN: What do you mean in a row?

STU: I mean, holding on to the bar, without letting go, you're doing three. There's no way. I don't think so.

GLENN: I think I could do. Well, with proper form, I don't know about that. I don't know about that.

STU: I'm not saying it has to look pretty. You have to get your chin up above the bar. It can't be one of those things, where you're a quarter of the way up there.

GLENN: So I can do one and rest for ten minutes. I could do another one.

I think I can do that.

STU: If you -- I'm not saying, you jump up, and you pull yourself up as you're pulling up. Full hang --

GLENN: See, you may not know this.

But you know what, I've done the DNA test. Have you ever done the DNA test that tells you all about your genes and everything else? Mine came back with something remarkable, and I have to share. You might feel bad, next.

(OUT AT 8:29 AM)

GLENN: You know no idea what who you're dealing with. No. You don't have any idea who you're dealing with here.

I got my DNA test back like 10 years ago. And we all -- we all took it, because we were looking for things. And so we all took it. My DNA test came back, and everybody in the family, their test made total sense. Like, oh, yeah. That makes...

Then we read mine. We have to find -- I have to find. See if Tania has it still. We should have had it framed. I swear to you, they -- they mixed me up with somebody else.

Somebody else is like, wait a minute. I'm this pathetic? Mine came out and said, you have the muscular structure of a -- of a -- something like a -- an elite athlete. You have the abilities and agility and everything else of an elite athlete. And I'm like, there's not a chance. I don't have any of that!

I don't even know if I have muscles. I have to check once in a while, and go, do I have muscles still?

Doctor is like, I don't know. Can I? Ask just press against my hand on the leg. I don't know.

You know, I don't know how to do that exactly. So --

STU: You sure it said elite athlete and not elephant? I mean, if they misspelled it.

GLENN: It was.

I was having eye problems at the time.

STU: No!

GLENN: I mean, we read it. And I was like Tania, I believe that for Tania.

Maybe they switched me and Tania. Because Tania is really strong. She'll kick your butt.

She works out every day. All of that. Me? Never. Never.

And it kind of makes me wonder, when I get to the other side, and the Lord went, okay.

So what did you do with your life again?

Because I gave this incredible body, and you wasted it the whole time.

And I'm like, you should have been more clear, okay?

You should have been more clear. I -- maybe I could have played basketball. But I tried once. And it was embarrassing. It was embarrassing. It was like sixth grade. And I'll never live -- I don't even want to think about my time on a basketball court. Okay? So don't -- don't start with me. You should have made it a little clearer. When I first started to do stuff. And I think that's fair. I think that's a fair argument. In my defense. In my defense, Your Honor, God, you should have made it a little more clear.

STU: Yeah. I mean, if they really wanted us to do this, then the 11th Commandment is 50 pushups, and -- or, 50 pullups and 100 pushups, right?

Like, put it in a commandment if you really want us to do it. You have to be more specific, we're Americans.

GLENN: Okay. So let me give you the top of the list for the JFK Presidential Fitness Test. Okay? This is what you had to do in high school. In high school.

Thirty-four pullups. Bar dips: Fifty-two. What's -- because I believe I did that. A long time. And I don't recommend it.

STU: It's not a barhop.

GLENN: Oh, it's -- oh, bar dips. Okay. Okay. All right.

Bar dips: 52. Handstand pushups: Fifty. What are handstands?

STU: Oh, my God. Handstands.

GLENN: I can't even stand on my hands. Is that I'm doing a handstand and a push up? Because that's not happening. You're not human.

STU: Yeah. You're balancing yourself on your hands. Your feet are above your hands on the wall. Like a wall. And you're doing --

GLENN: Oh, so you're balancing yourself. That makes it a little easier. Still impossible.

But a little easier.

GLENN: Impossible. You could do precisely zero of those.

Aright. So you had to do 50 handstand pushups.

Or one arm -- 30 -- no, sir.

Twenty-six one-arm burpees in 30 seconds. Is that a one-armed push up?

STU: No. Well, you're bracing your yourself like you're about to begin a pushup in a burpee with only one arm, which that's not that difficult.

But then you're doing. Then you're like, you move your feet towards your hands. And then you jump up in the air basically. And then you do it repeatedly.

GLENN: No, no, no. That's ridiculous. No.

STU: There's a law of gravity. You're not supposed to violate it. If it was a recommendation of gravity, then maybe jumping would be appropriate. But it's not. Follow the law.

GLENN: In 48 seconds, you had to do a 3300-yard shuttle. Now, I've been to the airport. I think I've done a 3300-yard shuttle, but it depends on who is driving. You know.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Rope climb. Try this. Rope climb. Twenty feet, hands only! Sit start.

STU: That's what I remember from the president's physical fitness test. And I remember looking at that rope, like, no chance I could get up that thing.

GLENN: I remember looking up at that thing. Humiliation. Humiliation is coming my way. I'll never kiss a girl, because that ain't happening. I'll get maybe 10 feet up. Maybe. Maybe.

STU: And you were right for 24 years from that time, approximately.

GLENN: Agility run, 17 seconds. Extension pressups, what? What?

I'm sorry. Why am I so tired reading this?

Extension pressups. What's an extension pressup, 8-inch? You had to do 100 of them.

STU: Let's see. Exercise. An exercise for low-back pain involving lying on your stomach and pressing your upper body up with your arms while keeping your hips relaxed and down on the mat.

GLENN: Oh, I could do that know. 8 inches.

STU: The last part of it, relaxing down on the mat.
GLENN: That's what my doctor says I should be doing. What?

STU: I can do relaxed and down on the mat. That part of it --

GLENN: Yeah. I could do that -- I'm the only guy. I took yoga for a while, like three weeks. My wife is like, yoga. You could do yoga. Let's just do yoga together.

I did. And the yoga instructor said to me. Because we were doing a plank.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: And she came and all I remember her waking me up. And saying, I think you're the only person I've ever -- ever taught that fell asleep in yoga. And I'm like, it's just so relaxing. Just let me sleep. Let me sleep.

STU: That's interesting, that you did yoga. Is there any footage of that? Any video that we could post? That would be good for --

GLENN: No. There's not. You had to do pegboard. Five trips of pegboard. And I think that's when you have the two pegs.

STU: Yes, it was a board.

GLENN: You have to take it out, and put it up, right?

STU: This is American Ninja Warrior. No way.

GLENN: There's no way. There's no way.

STU: This is amazing.

GLENN: Try this one: You had to do a 45-second handstand. I've never been able to do a handstand. Never!

STU: Never.

GLENN: And I'm an elite athlete. I'm an elite athlete. Try this one: A man carry, 5 miles.

STU: What? What do you mean a --

GLENN: Five-mile man carry.

STU: Is a man carry as obvious as it --

GLENN: I think it is.

STU: You're carrying --

GLENN: If I'm going to carry that man, you have to carry me that man for five miles.

I'm not sure, I can't carry any man for any miles. I mean, if I am -- if I am a firefighter, count on burning in the house. You're going to burn in the house. Because I can't carry you out. I can get in there and go, yeah, I will have to leave you.
I will have to leave you here. I can't help you, sorry.

It's also getting really hot in here. I have to go. You had to do a five-mile jog. An obstacle course.

You had to swim prone for a mile. You had to swim underwater for 50 yards, any strokes, two minutes. Deep waterfront, hang float, with arms. What? What is a deep water hang float with arms. Wait. Wait.

It's a deep waterfront hang float with arms and ankles tied for six minutes.

What kind of al-Qaeda PE class was this?

STU: Who has access to -- who has access -- like, you're in the middle of the country, you may not have a deep water body nearby. This is -- are you sure this is an actual test?

GLENN: This is the actual test. This is the actual -- what is a deep water front hang float with arms and ankles tied for six minutes? Can you look that up?

STU: A deep water hang float is an aquatic hang float done in the deep end of a pool with the aid of flotation device, such as a noodle or belt.

In this position, the flotation twice supports your upper body, while your legs and torso hang freely beneath you.

That can't be what it is.

GLENN: You can do that.

Deep-end of the pool.

STU: Can you bring a margarita?

GLENN: Man, this test is no big deal.

What! No way. No way!

Here's the last thing on the test.

A vertical tread in an 8-foot circle for two hours!

No way.

STU: Vertical tread in an 8-foot circle?

GLENN: So you're in the water and you're treading water in a circle for two hours. Two!

STU: This is not -- what?

This is not the test.

GLENN: It is. Now, I told you, this is the top of the test.

This is the top of the test.

So this is for the ones who could do all the other tests.

This was the top of the test. The bottom of the test is not that much better. Here's the entry, okay? Let's see. Pullups, 2/6/10. I don't know what that means. Pushups, 16, 24, 32. Bar dips, four, eight, and 12. Situps, 30, 45, and 60. Broad jump, 6-foot, 6, 6, 6. And 6, 9.

To jump 6 feet? I don't even know if --

STU: That one is possible, yes. Glenn, I know it sounds incredible. But, yes. That one is possible.

GLENN: Sounds incredible. You know, I think we should have the average person Olympics. I really do. I really do.

STU: Oh, I would watch that.

GLENN: I would watch that every time.

You see them coming. And you're like, hmm. That one -- three feet. I'm giving him 3 feet. 200-yard shuttle. Agility run. Rope climb, 18 feet, hands only. 880 yards in three minutes. A mile in seven minutes. Pegboard, six holes. A 50-yard swim. Forty -- 40, 50-yard swim in 36 seconds. Man carry, 880 yards. No, thank you! No, thank you!

Look at -- look at what we've gone down. That's the bottom of it. And I don't think most Americans could do that.

I couldn't. Well, I could. Because I'm an elite -- I have the body of an elite athlete.

STU: No. You could not. Now, of course -- let's just say, this is supposed to be for a high school kid. Right?

So this is the prime of your athletic life. Could you do some of these things? Probably.
GLENN: Go into high school.
Go into any high school, and ask them to do this. There's no way. And all of the kids would be.

STU: Well, that's kind of what the reaction would be.

GLENN: Don't get me wrong. I would have been there too. And my parents would have said, suck it up. Just do it.

So nothing has really changed.

STU: That's been the reaction to this proposal too, of bringing this back. Right? The media is covering this. Like, it's going to embarrass children.

You know, I mean, I do remember it being like, I can't do that. I'm not going to the top of that rope. That's not happening.

That's sort of life. Right? Sometimes you can do things. Sometimes you can't do other things.

GLENN: That's why you have to learn how to injure yourself.

You know, how many stairs can I throw myself down, to not do serious damage, but enough to get me out of PE.

STU: Yeah, you have to fake an why are. You have to learn from LeBron James. Act like you got hit in the eye. And fall down like you were just stabbed over and over again, like you were in an athletic competition.

GLENN: There's no way. There's no way.

SHOCKING: Glenn Beck Interviews 'Detransitioner' Deceived by Doctors

Claire Abernathy was just 14-years-old when doctors told her parents she’d take her own life without hormones and surgery. They promised “gender care” would save her life. Instead, it left Claire with irreversible scars, broken trust, and a lifetime of regret. Her mom was told she was required to comply. No one ever addressed the bullying, or trauma Claire endured before being rushed into medical transition. Now, years later, both Claire and her mother are speaking out and exposing how families are misled, how doctors hide risks, and how children are left to pay the price. With federal investigations now underway, their story is a warning every parent needs to hear.
